Description
This three-volume collection focuses on writings by and about cross-dressing women from the early nineteenth century up until the beginning of World War II.
In so doing, it provides a new perspective on one of the most decisive periods in the history of feminism.
The anthology brings together for the first time key texts from the sexological and the literary realms, as well as newspaper articles, letters and photographs, which document the phenomenon of cross-dressing women in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century British culture.
The collection also includes translations from European texts that impacted on British understandings of cross-dressing during this time.
A fascinating work, each of the volumes is introduced separately with a critical essay, and is divided thematically to include sections devoted to theories, fictions and fictionalisations, and lives.
Together, these volumes make available important source material for the history of feminism.
